I'm sure you are joking. The Women's WR is 10.49 in the 100m. Since a lot of male athletes in traditional sports (i.e., football players) run the 40 yard and not the 100m there have been studies done to try and correlate the two. On average it's estimated that a 10.49 100m would convert to around a 4.35 40 yard dash. There are a handful of NFL guys at the combine each year that could do this with a little extra training at that distance. NOBODY on the OT could do this.
All of this is bullshite.

Almost 80 high school boys run faster than the women’s WR every year.

Okay? What part of elite HS sprinters being able to break the women's WR make any part of what I said bullshite?

Henry Ruggs' 4.27 is one of the fastest 40s of recent... he ran a 10.58 in high school, setting the alabama record. I know several h.s. kids do go sub 10.5, but thought I'd throw an nfl comparison in the mix.
